Bay City are not a good team. Let me be very clear as I take their ML here. They have just five wins over their 17 matches, and have only scored 18 goals over those match, while conceding 24. The thing is, I don't care about them, I'm always going to fade Chicago Stars. Chicago are the worst attacking team in this league and it's not close. They only have 9 goals scored this season, while conceding a massive 33 goals. Chicago will continue to be the punching bag of NWSL, so hop on the fade train early!
While I hate going against Giants ace Logan Webb at home, I have to back the surging Troy Melton and the Tigers on Sunday. In 12 starts this season, Melton is 7-1 with an incredible 1.58 ERA. Detroit is 10-2 in those starts, including 6-0 since July 1st. Melton has surrendered one run or less in 9/12 starts and has only given up more than two runs twice. With the Tigers only two games out of the last American League Wild Card spot, I will back Detroit to win their road series in San Francisco today.
I know -158 is a gross number, however, in this tool I don't have the option to add BTTS, so I'm telling y'all, add BTTS and get this bad boy down to even money. Portland are a good team playing very hot or cold football at the moment. they were just throttled 5-1 by Utah Royals, but before that fought Gotham to a 2-2 draw. While this team is struggling for consistency, their games aren't lacking goals. Boston are in good form right now with only one loss in their last five and will keep this very competitive.
Boston apparently is playing a few home games this season in Rhode Island, including today's matchup on CBS Sports Network. The Thorns are higher in the table but traveling cross country and apparently without their co-second-leading scorers in Olivia Moultrie and Reilyn Turner. They each have five goals. Moultrie is second with five assists. Portland, winless in its past four overall, is undefeated at home but has lost six games on the road. A total of 14 of Boston’s 20 points on the year have been earned at home.
Boston Legacy moved up to 12th in the NWSL table after taking 10 points from their last five games. The expansion franchise made a slow start to the season, but it's building momentum, and the Legacy now has a realistic chance of qualifying for the playoffs. The players need to maintain that momentum when they take on Portland Thorns in Pawtucket this weekend. The Thorns struggle on the road - they've lost their last five away games - and they may be lacking in confidence after losing 5-1 to the Utah Royals last weekend. Boston should get a result in this game.
Just no excuse for playoff-hopeful St. Louis to lose a home series to Colorado, especially unable to beat the atrocious Kyle Freeland on Saturday (that hurt). It's the nearly as atrocious Michael Lorenzen (3-10, 6.94 ERA) today. Batters are hitting a cool .336 this season off Mike, which is absurd. The Cards' Alec Burleson might be worth an O1.5 total bases look as he's 4-for-5 off Lorenzen with two homers.
Rockies leadoff man Jake McCarthy is 13/27 (.481) over the last week and has a good matchup against Cardinals struggling right hander Michael McGreevy. McCarthy has reached at least two total bases in 6 of his last 7 games. In the two games thus far of this weekend series, McCarthy is 7/9 with 14 total bases. Let's ride the hot streak in what should be another hitter friendly day in steamy St. Louis.
